test(handlers): add HTTP handler coverage for ScheduleHandler — 28 cases

Covers all untested HTTP handler paths on ScheduleHandler:

List:
  - empty result → 200 []
  - query error → 500

Create:
  - missing cron_expr → 400
  - missing prompt → 400
  - invalid timezone → 400
  - invalid cron → 400
  - CRLF stripped from prompt (#958)
  - default enabled=true (absent field)
  - default timezone=UTC (absent field)
  - explicit enabled=false
  - INSERT DB error → 500
  - next_run_at returned in 201 response

Update:
  - cron change → SELECT current + UPDATE with recomputed next_run_at
  - timezone change → SELECT current + UPDATE with recomputed next_run_at
  - invalid timezone → 400
  - invalid cron → 400
  - schedule not found → 404
  - UPDATE DB error → 500
  - prompt CRLF stripped on update (#958)

Delete:
  - success → 200
  - not found (IDOR) → 404
  - DELETE DB error → 500

RunNow:
  - success → 200 with workspace_id + prompt
  - not found → 404
  - SELECT DB error → 500

History:
  - empty result → 200 []
  - query error → 500
  - multiple entries with error_detail (#152)

Closes #980

     #
-    # canvas-deploy-reminder is intentionally NOT included in all-required.needs.
-    # It is an informational main-push reminder, not a PR quality gate. Keeping
-    # it in this dependency list lets a skipped reminder skip the required
-    # sentinel before the `always()` guard can emit a branch-protection status.
+    #  1. `if: always()` — runs even when an upstream fails. Without it the
+    #     sentinel is `skipped` and protection treats that as missing → merge
+    #     ungated.

-# E2E test: workspace broadcast and talk-to-user platform abilities.
-#
-# What this proves:
-#   1. talk_to_user_enabled (default true) — POST /notify works out-of-the-box.
-#   2. PATCH /workspaces/:id/abilities { talk_to_user_enabled: false } disables
-#      delivery: /notify → 403 with error="talk_to_user_disabled" + delegate hint.
-#   3. Re-enabling talk_to_user_enabled restores delivery.
-#   4. broadcast_enabled (default false) — POST /broadcast → 403 when disabled.
-#   5. PATCH { broadcast_enabled: true } enables fan-out.
-#   6. POST /broadcast delivers to all non-sender, non-removed workspaces:
-#      - Returns {"status":"sent","delivered":N}
-#      - Receiver's activity log has a broadcast_receive entry with the message.
-#      - Sender's activity log has a broadcast_sent entry.
-#   7. The sender itself does NOT receive a broadcast_receive entry.
-#
-# Usage:  tests/e2e/test_workspace_abilities_e2e.sh
-# Prereqs: workspace-server on http://localhost:8080, MOLECULE_ENV != production

 ### get_workspace_info
 Use to introspect your own identity (e.g. before reporting back to the user, or to determine whether you're a tier-0 root that can write GLOBAL memory).
 
-### broadcast_message
-Use for urgent, org-wide signals: critical status changes, emergency stop instructions, coordinated task announcements. Every non-removed workspace receives the message in its activity log (poll-mode agents see it on their next poll; push-mode canvases get a real-time banner). This tool returns an error if broadcast_enabled is false — a user or admin must enable it via the workspace abilities settings first.
-
 ### send_message_to_user
 Use proactively across the lifecycle of a task — early to acknowledge, mid-flight to update, late to deliver. Never paste file URLs in the message body — always pass absolute paths in `attachments` so the platform serves them as download chips (works on SaaS where external file hosts are unreachable).

-"""OFFSEC-003 regression backstop — sanitize_a2a_result invariant across all A2A tool exit points.
-
-Scope
------
-Every public callable in ``a2a_tools_delegation`` that returns peer-sourced content
-must pass its output through ``sanitize_a2a_result`` before returning to the agent
-context.  These tests inject boundary markers and control sequences from a
-mock-peer response and assert the returned value is the sanitized form.
-
-Test coverage for:
-  - ``tool_delegate_task``            — main sync path
-  - ``tool_delegate_task``            — queued-mode fallback path
-  - ``_delegate_sync_via_polling``    — internal polling helper
-  - ``tool_check_task_status``        — filtered delegation_id lookup
-  - ``tool_check_task_status``        — list of recent delegations
-
-Issue references: #491 (delegate_task), #537 (builtin_tools/a2a_tools.py sibling)
-
-Key sanitization facts (for test authors):
-  • _escape_boundary_markers: replaces "[A2A_RESULT_FROM_PEER]" with
-    "[/ A2A_RESULT_FROM_PEER]" and "[/A2A_RESULT_FROM_PEER]" with
-    "[/ /A2A_RESULT_FROM_PEER]". The escape form is "[/ " (bracket-space).
-    Assertion pattern: assert "[/ A2A_RESULT_FROM_PEER]" in result.
-  • Defense-in-depth injection escape patterns replace SYSTEM/OVERRIDE/
-    INSTRUCTIONS/IGNORE ALL/YOU ARE NOW with "[ESCAPED_*]" forms.
-  • Error path: when peer returns an error-prefixed string (starts with
-    _A2A_ERROR_PREFIX), the raw error text is included in the user-facing
-    "DELEGATION FAILED" message. This is intentional — errors from peers
-    are surfaced as errors, not as sanitized results.
